Collingwood have provided an update on star forward Jordan De Goey following his injury scare at training on Friday morning.

The 22-year old landed awkwardly on his ankle in a marking contest and had to be helped off the ground by trainers.

However, fears of serious injury were put to rest after scans cleared the young gun of serious damage.

De Goey will wear a moon boot for the next seven days and not be involved in weight-bearing actives.

“After that, we should be able to determine how and when Jordy returns to the program,” said Collingwood GM Geoff Walsh told collingwoodfc.com.au.
